Tomorrow I will say goodbye to my wife and wish her well. I will drop my kids off at school and tell them I love them. I will make the short drive to work. It will be like most other days.
Friday, in Newtown, Connecticut it seemed like a normal day too. We were all taken aback and deeply saddened at the tragedy that struck that sleepy town last Friday. Our hearts and prayers go out to them. We cannot even imagine what they are feeling.

Corinth Christian
• The true meaning of Christmas is not about presents. It’s about God’s gift to us - a baby in cloth laying a manger in a stable. God sent His Son born of a woman to Earth to help people learn the word if Christ Jesus. He died for our sins so we could have everlasting life.

Crittenden Christian Disciples of Christ
• Everyone is welcome at Crittenden Christian Church, no exceptions. To learn more about the church, contact Rev. Shayanna Jolly at 859-428-2210 or go to www.crittendenchristian.com.

Jesus knew that what he asks of us was not easy – devoting our entire life to his way of life – to die to self so that Christ could live in us. Jesus knew this left no room for things like slicing off little pieces of one’s life to do “good works” for God. That’s not a Christ-like lifestyle – it’s more like a toe dipped in the waters – and Jesus wants a whole lot more than our toes.

Corinth Christian
• December is the beginning of the story of Jesus Christ’s Birth. God is life. He made the heavens and earth for us to understand his word through Jesus. We should follow his teachings. Where there is a true believer Christ is present. The gospel or God’s word is for all people.
• Dec. 12 - Bible Study Revelations at 7 p.m.

The truth of our Christmas season is that we have let it become more about the “kings” of this world than about the coming of Christ the King.

Indeed, the Christmas season has become something other than what Christ himself would want for us. We spend much of our time and money shopping for extravagant presents for people who already have more than they need.

Christ Community
• Thanksgiving is a good time to express your appreciation to our heavenly Father not only for His provision for our needs, but for sending His precious son, Jesus Christ, to the cross to die for our redemption and healing. Let’s be forever grateful.
